From the homepage:
|
|
|
|
> The original idea behind this project was to provide a tool to apply the data-recovery capability concepts of
|
|
> RAID-like systems to the posting and recovery of multi-part archives on Usenet.
|
|
|
|
Parchive can be used to add recovery records to e.g. a DVD. How to do this is described on [Mike West's blog](http://mikewest.org/2008/01/safegarding-your-data-with-parchive).
|
|
Basically, you will create PAR files using the command:
|
|
|
|
par2create -s262144 -r10 [NameOfParFile.par2] [FilesToRead]
|
|
|
|
You can then later recover broken files using
|
|
|
|
par2repair [NameOfParFile.par2]
|
|
